Good new rule.

Been seeing the celebrity ones and the anti-gay ones for way too long. I don't really know why anyone has to display any of this stuff on a child-friendly adoptable website to begin with. :I

I agree! And Tess, thank you for the rule. Some of the signatures on CS have made me very uncomfortable. I really think that this rule is good.

    about time, this makes me and a good bunch of my friends feel much safer around this site.
    would this new rule apply to the interests box as well?

    I hope this does, I had this question open in a new tab and forgot to enter it here. xP
    It wouldn't make sense if the negative messages were still allowed in the interest boxes, it somewhat flaws the rule if that is the case.

I never did understand why people would make celebrity hate signatures. :/ I mean, I got my characters I hate, but I won't stick it in my sig, I'll have discussions with other people about them (it can actually be very eye-opening to have a nice discussion with someone who hates a character you love, you'll see a side you didn't see before).

This rule will also affect trade rules or other profile fields.

Please check your signature/trade rules and profile and get them sorted out ASAP!

That would be a yes, it applies to any part of your profile.

Yes, thank you! I can't tell you how many people I couldn't trade because they were against homosexuality/bisexuality/asexuality, or joke about suicide. I feel much safer now! Thanks a lot :D

Aaaaaah I'm so glad for this! Thank you so much, it really got me quite down seeing such nasty messages in peoples sigs. This site is supposed to be about collecting virtual pets and having fun, not about promoting how much you hate certain groups or people!
